#### See alligators, pumas and howler monkeys in a tropical national park. Learn about the relaxed culture in this humid province in northern Argentina.

Formosa is a large province with jungle terrain and protected national parks. Among Argentina’s least developed regions, it is among the few areas of the country with humid weather, as you might expect in parts of Brazil and Colombia. The scenic Paraguay River runs through province's capital city, also named Formosa. Discover cultural influences from north of the border in the main city and venture into forests and unspoiled lands.

Relax in the city of Formosa, which has a laid-back atmosphere more akin to neighbors Brazil and Paraguay than the Italian-like culture of Buenos Aires. Stroll along the Costanera, the picturesque river walk on the city’s eastern flank.

Many art exhibits are displayed near the river. Dine at restaurants and enjoy a few drinks at a bar with a water view. Learn about the history of the commune, with a trip to the city hall, a historic former railway station. Make sure to see the twin towers of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Carmen.

Explore the unblemished Rio Pilcomayo National Park next to the Paraguayan border north of the city. Camp and hike in the humid forests, grasslands, creeks and lakes. Go to a big-cat lookout to spot pumas. Snakes and alligators wander through the park as well.

For a change of scenery, travel 185 miles (298 kilometers) northwest to the Las Lomitas region. Its Bañado la Estrella is a huge area of vegetation and wildlife along the Pilcomayo River.

The region has a subtropical climate with high humidity, rain and heat year-round. Explore the jungle and forest vegetation that flourishes in this weather.

The province of Formosa lies just outside the Paraguayan capital of Asunción in northeastern Argentina. Formosa Airport is just 4 miles (6 kilometers) southwest of the city center and has daily flights to Buenos Aires.

Formosa provides a peaceful getaway with its tropical forests and relaxed ambiance, taking you away from bustling city life.
